I’ll do the factchecking the BBC hasn’t.

Utter cringe fest. Sadly with too many potential negative consequences to just laugh at the ludicrousness of it all

A person holding up a The Hardship Times newspaper in the sky. The front page says: 'Together we can end hunger and hardship: Hundreds of food banks call on the UK government to take urgent action'. There are stories and quotes behind the headline from people. On the back page it says: 'everyone should be able to afford the essentials: over 100 organisations agree.' It's time to guarantee our essentials.

Millions are facing hardship because Universal Credit is falling short.

The UK government must make sure UC covers the cost of the essentials we need to survive.

Together we can end hunger and hardship.

Lovely pup - never seen that colouring before. Years ago a friend had inadvertently bought a JR/Alsatian mix - you can imagine the mayhem πŸ˜€
